  • Does not truly represent Calvinism

    It is hard to listen to arguments that do not represent the position you are debating. You should first understand a position before you try to tear it down. It is a waste of time to argue against something neither side believes.

  • Great resource

    I was able to get answers to problematic texts. I’ve never been a Calvinist, but I did read a number of Bible passages as a Calvinist and found Dr. Flower’s information to be insightful on offering biblically based, sound, and robust answers.

  • So thankful for this awesome resource!

    Please stop changing the speed!!!!!! If I am already listening at an altered speed, then it’s indecipherable when you change it too. Now I have to stop and change the speed every time you push play and pause!! This is so frustrating! Please keep everything normal speed on your end and and allow your listener pick the speed we need!!!!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

James White is Blaming God and Excusing Sinners
Q: Wasn't the crucifixion an evil act committed by sinful men, yet still something scripture says happened according to God's predetermined plan?
Flowers says God can purpose the crucifixion for a good end while knowing and using the evil intentions of Judas, Pontius Pilate, and others without causing those intentions.
Arminian vs Provisionist Distinctions
Q: Is the biggest disagreement between Provisionism and Arminianism the doctrine of total depravity? Are there other points of contention?
Beeler says he can affirm total depravity if it means sin has corrupted every part of a person, but he rejects the associated claim that people are unable from birth to will a response to God. Flowers identifies inability as the key distinction, while Chapa connects total depravity with the necessity of prevenient grace and the Spirit's inward call.
Arminian vs Provisionist Distinctions
Q: Do you believe that people could come to Christ and believe in Christ without the internal witness of the Holy Spirit convicting them in that direction?
Beeler says the Holy Spirit is always active in people, using the gospel's external means while also convicting hearts inwardly. He describes the inward work as mysterious and says the gospel message and the Spirit's conviction work together.
